Third-ranked Iga Swiatek captured the Cincinnati Open title for the first time by defeating No. 7 Jasmine Paolini 7-5, 6-4 on Monday night. Swiatek had failed to advance past the semifinals in her six previous appearances at the Cincinnati Open.

Polish tennis player Iga Swiatek's post match interview took an awkward turn when the interviewer mentioned possibly spitting on her after beating Elena Rybakina in straight sets to reach the Cincinnati Open final on Monday night.

Swiatek and Casper Ruud lost in three sets to Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori in the US Open mixed doubles final.

The forehand that grazed the sideline, the temple tap to her team, the sprint around the court. All of it pointed to a player in Iga Swiatek who is as composed as she is ruthless.

World number three Iga Swiatek said triumph at the Cincinnati Open gives her a "boost of confidence" before the US Open begins on Sunday.

Iga Świątek continued her stellar summer with another WTA 1000 title, defeating Jasmine Paolini in the Cincinnati final.

Look no further than Iga Swiatek. Earlier this summer, the sky was falling for Swiatek. She failed to defend any of her clay court titles, sank in the WTA Rankings, and was fielding outlandish questions about possibly skipping the grass court season altogether (luckily, that did not happen).

Brad Gilbert caught criticism on social media after apparently engaging with Iga Swiatek's harasser on X. Over the weekend, Gilbert - who coached Coco Gauff for a year between 2023 and 2024 - appeared to question why the Cincinnati Open organizers were granting all of Swiatek's requests to have her matches scheduled early.

The revamped US Open mixed doubles started yesterday at Flushing Meadows, with 16 pairs vieing for a chance to claim the title and $1 million winning cheque.
